The food was delicious. The staff was very welcoming. Good price, good quantity too. Bathrooms were clean.
Really felt like a homey type of diner. Learned a new way to say straw in spanish as well. We usually say pitillo, but they used the word pajillas.

Si! Very delicious. I'm a huge seinfeld fan. I stopped in to see the spot for this reason and I will be back because of the food/excellent service.

It's New York. The waiter rushed my order, which was fine. He brought my coffee and food, fast. Fine again. He did not return to check on me at all. No coffee refills. No check. The table next to me was the same thing. We both walked to the counter to get coffee and our checks. Food was great but service was poor. P.S. Omelet comes w/o cheese. Even after requesting cheese, they forgot.

Unfortunately, an awful experience. I came to this diner on purpose before leaving NY as it appears as “one of the best diners in the city” if you search on google. Wow.
They have a long menu, but somehow the waiters looked to be in a rush and came to my table twice in a matter of a minute to make me order. Had to order something I already knew as they would just keep coming back so that’s already a big negative aspect.
Sure the food was ready in 5 minutes but it looked like someone ate half of my potatoes (pic) plus they were either burned or completely tasteless. Never understood why potatoes are so bad at every diner I’ve been to. The lox eggs benedict were bad too, they also never asked how I’d like the eggs to be cooked, and I was always asked this at any other brunch spot. Never had such a sour lox served before, I just need to hope I won’t get sick. The portion was so small (yes in a diner that supposedly serves big portions) that I had to order pancakes as I was still hungry. 2 plain pancakes? $10. Extremely rude cashier (looked to be the owner/manager?) too that doesn’t even look at you while she just reaches for your bill. Everything done in such a rush that I have no idea what % of tips she included. Overall I can’t even say that the place was very clean, my plate was impossible to touch because of how oily the bottom part was. I do not recommend it at all.

This is your typical American diner they have a huge selection of food from your typical breakfast menus to sandwiches and Burgers. I got the eggs Benedict and my son got the California club. We also got the curly fries, which was $1 upgrade but it was worth it. Both were very good the eggs Benedict was a little hard to cut in the Togo tin but overall the holiday sauce and the eggs were made right. The California club was a three stack with chicken,pesto, avocado spread and B.L.T. I got the food Togo. I was able to order online and bring it back to my apartment. Which was a plus for me

This was my favorite breakfast place. Fast, friendly service. Typical crowd, but they managed it to perfection! Exactly the diner experience I prefer. Here's our experience;

+Eggs Benedict
+Crepes
+Breakfast Potatoes (I hate them, but these were great!)
+Waffle
+Service and staff
+Cost

-Coffee (OK)
-Crowd (BUT WAS HANDLED EXCELLENTLY!)

The freshness of white onion and green onions in the omelette! I came around 8:30 Monday morning, and the restaurant had a guy at the front door organizing the queue for tables. It didn't take too long before our turn. The restaurant is bustling with customers and orders, and well lit by the surrounding glass buildings, which gives a great NYC morning vibe. I ordered the Western omelette and a crepe. The ingredients were so fresh that I can still taste it when I am writing this review. The sizable portion gave me enough calories for the long walk of the day. After the omelette, I moved onto the crepe. It's the real sweet dark chocolate that added highlights to the meal. The staff are very efficient. I observed it took less than a minute from a customer leaving the table to the table all cleaned up and ready for the next customer. Marked down as a favorite on my Google maps and we will be back.
